Lord Mayor of London in the United Kingdom William Russell has described his visit to Qatar as successful and fruitful. He said the city of London has long-term partnerships with investment and financial institutions in Qatar.
In an interview with Qatar News Agency, he stressed on the close and historical relations between Qatar and the United Kingdom. Qatar is an important friend of the United Kingdom, and it is necessary to develop financial, economic and commercial ties with it, especially since the two countries are considered as financial centers at the world level, he added.
The Lord Mayor of London said the two countries play a vital and pioneering role in building a more resilient global economy that takes into account the environment, the risks of climate change and green growth, which is imperative for the two countries to develop partnerships in wider areas.
He said the volume of Qatari investments in the United Kingdom amounted to about 40 billion pounds last year in energy sectors, companies and properties. He said a total of 1,134 British companies and representative offices are operating in Qatar.
